Set Your Guitars And Banjos On Fire

I've Done So Many Albums Where I've Been In The Studio For 14 Hours A Day For Six Months Just Trying To Come Up With Things On My Own. It's A Nice Change Helping Other People With Their Music And Not Being All About What I'm Trying To Do Myself.

I Did That Grammys Thing - I Did A Little Freeform Poem.

I Think I Gave Indications Early On That Mine Wasn't Just Going To Be A Commercial, Er, Career. If That Were The Case, Then The First Record Would Have Been 10 Versions Of 'loser.' I Always Thought It Would Be Interesting If There Was No Such Thing As Gold And Platinum Records, Or Record Deals, And People Were Just Making Music. What Would The Music Sound Like?

There's A Perception That If An Artist Produces Another Artist, They're Going To Imprint On Them. But I'm The Opposite.

I Remember You Would Record A Guitar Part, And We Would Have To Sit There For 15 Or 20 Minutes Waiting For The Computer To Process It. You'd See The Little Wheel Spinning On The Computer, And You'd Be Praying That The Hard Drive Didn't Crash And You Didn't Lose The Performance.
